iCloud Drive allows users to store all of their individual files from OS X and iOS in addition to data from applications on Apple’s cloud storage service, with the feature syncing all files across every Mac. The files stored on iCloud Drive are even available on a user’s iOS devices, as the feature also contains support for Windows through the iCloud client. Apple will also be announcing cloud drive pricing and storage amounts for the service at a later time.

Meanwhile, Apple’s new Mail Drop feature allows users to send attachments up to 5GB through iCloud, as files sent can be encrypted or seamlessly sent on a Mac.

iCloud Drive and Mail Drop will ship as a part of OS X 10.10 Yosemite, which will be available this fall for free.
